PROJECT INFORMATION Project No: Bridge 26 County: Macon WBS No: 67029.1.1 Document: Minimum Criteria F.A. No: N/A Funding: State Federal Federal Permit Required? Yes No Permit Type: NWP#3 or 14 Project Description: The project calls for the replacement of Bridge No. 26 on NC 106 (Dillard Road) over Middle Creek in Macon County (Figure 1). The archaeological Area of Potential Effects (APE) for the project is defined as a 4,350-foot (1,325.88 m) long corridor running 2,130 feet (649.22 m) east and 2,220 feet (676.66 m) west along NC 106 from the center of Bridge No. 26. The corridor is approximately 500 feet (152.40 m) wide extending 250 feet (76.20 m) on either side of the road from its present centerline. SUMMARY OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL FINDINGS The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) Archaeology Group reviewed the subject project and determined: There are no National Register listed or eligible ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES present within the project’s area of potential effects. (Attach any notes or documents as needed) No subsurface archaeological investigations were required for this project. Subsurface investigations did not reveal the presence of any archaeological resources. Subsurface investigations did not reveal the presence of any archaeological resources considered eligible for the National Register. All identified archaeological sites located within the APE have been considered and all compliance for archaeological resources with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and GS 121-12(a) has been completed for this project. Project Tracking No.: “NO NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBLE OR LISTED ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES PRESENT” form for Minor Transportation Projects as Qualified in the 2007 Programmatic Agreement. 2 of 20 17-12-0040 RECOMMENDATION New South Associates, Inc. conducted an intensive archaeological survey and evaluation for proposed replacement of Bridge No. 26 in Macon County on May 3 and 4, 2018, under the direction of James Stewart and the supervision of Shawn Patch (see Figures 1 and 2). During the course of the survey, no archaeological resources were identified. Based on these results, no further archaeological investigations are recommended for this project as currently defined. I concur with this recommendation as the proposed project will not impact significant archaeological resources. However if the project expands and impacts subsurface areas beyond the defined APE, further archaeological consultations will be necessary.

No previously recorded sites are recorded within or adjacent to the APE, but six sites (31MA276-31MA280 and 31MA282) were identified within one mile of the bridge. A review of the site files shows only one previous archaeological investigation in the region. Conducted by the U.S. Forest Service, this work included properties north of NC 106 mostly along ridge tops outside of the current APE (Radisch et al. 1989). Testing consisted of a fire rake survey and no subsurface testing. Six prehistoric sites (31MA276-31MA280 and 31MA282) were identified, one (31MA282) of which yielded historic resources as well. These sites were lithic scatters that were determined not eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). According to the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) online database (HPOWEB 2018), there are no known historic architectural resources within the APE that may yield intact archaeological deposits. An NCDOT archaeologist also examined topographic maps, USDA soil survey maps, aerial photographs (NC One Map), historic maps (North Carolina maps website), and the Google Street View application for information on environmental and cultural variables that may have contributed to prehistoric or historic settlement within the project limits and to assess the level of ground disturbance. The 1907 USGS Cowee topographic map was the earliest map in which an accurate location for the project could be determined. It shows a road with a similar alignment as NC 106, but Middle Creek is plotted further towards the northeast. This location is probably incorrect as it does not appear that the creek has been moved during the 20th century. Two structures are also depicted either within or near the APE, but it appears neither is still standing. The circa 1910 U.S. Post Office map also depicts the road but with a distorted alignment that is likely due to the schematic nature of the postal map. The postal map also shows structures nearby, but outside of the project limits. The 1933 Soil Map for Macon County shows a more accurate and modern road layout with structures on either side of the bridge (Devereux et. al 1933). Although it is very likely that structures found on these maps are no longer standing, remains could still be present. NCDOT recommended additional work in the form of a reconnaissance and field survey to record and evaluate archaeological sites that might be impacted by the proposed replacement of Bridge 26. New South Associates, Inc. (New South) conducted an intensive archaeological survey of the project APE on May 3 and May 4, 2018 (Figure 2). This survey sought to identify and evaluate archaeological sites for NRHP eligibility according to 36 CFR §60.4 criterion. The survey included a visual inspection of the entire APE and systematic shovel-testing of areas identified as having a moderate to high probability for the presence of archaeological sites. These areas consisted of moderately well-drained and well-drained soils that were not impacted by modern development and have less than 15 percent slope, according to available LiDAR data. The Bridge 26 APE encompassed an area of mountainous terrain. The principal road, NC 106, through the APE was constructed along the side slope of the dominant ridgeline. NC 106 and Bridge 26 run east to west, while Middle Creek drains to the northwest into the Little Tennessee River. An unnamed tributary to Middle Creek also falls within the APE. The project area is mostly covered by a pine and hardwood canopy with some grassy lawns present in residential properties and open spaces (Figure 3a–c). The understory was mostly composed of Project Tracking No.: “NO NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBLE OR LISTED ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES PRESENT” form for Minor Transportation Projects as Qualified in the 2007 Programmatic Agreement. 4 of 20 17-12-0040 rhododendron and light-density scrub vegetation. A portion of the project’s APE northwest of the bridge is owned by the U.S. Forest Service. Shovel testing of the moderate to high probability areas relied on pre-plotted 15-meter interval shovel test grids (see Figure 2). Field technicians visited all accessible test locations during the survey. Test locations plotted in potentially hazardous conditions (e.g., on excessively steep slopes) were visually inspected from a distance. Excavated tests measured 30-centimeters in diameter and were excavated to sterile subsoil or impenetrable substrate. All soil was screened through 0.25-inch mesh hardware cloth for artifact recovery. Shovel test results (including soil color, texture, depths, and the presence/absence of cultural material) were recorded using smartphones equipped with a Memento data collection application. Sub-meter Global Positioning System (GPS) data for selected shovel tests was also collected. New South technicians examined 362 pre-plotted shovel test locations in the APE (Appendix A; see Figure 2). Of these, 97 negative tests were excavated. These tests generally revealed 5-25 centimeters of brownish yellow (10YR 6/6) sandy loam overlying yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) sandy clay subsoil (Figure 4a–c). Several tests revealed three strata. In these, the profiles generally included five centimeters of grayish brown (10YR 5/2) loam overlying 15 centimeters of brown (7.5YR 5/4) clayey loam. A 10-centimeter-thick zone of reddish brown (5YR 5/4) loamy clay subsoil was encountered 20 centimeters below ground surface. The 265 remaining test locations were not excavated due to the presence of steep slope, surface water, buildings, or pavement. Conclusions New South conducted an intensive archaeological survey of the project’s APE from May 3–4, 2018. Although the APE had the potential for the presence of historic house sites, none of the locations identified by the map review yielded artifacts or evidence of cultural activity. New South’s shovel testing and visual inspection of the Bridge 26 APE did not locate any archaeological resources. No further work is needed. If the project area expands and impacts subsurface areas beyond what has been defined as the APE, further archaeological studies may be necessary. New South Associates, Inc.
